Puffers
Thinking I need a black puffer, preferably hitting around the waist. Also need it to actually be warm as my winters are consistently in the 20s F, with a few days closer to 0 F (so down filling is appreciated).
Obviously there is the TNF Nuptse. Stussy also appears to have a nice option for a similar price. Wondering what other options there are in the <$500 range, but preferably around $300.

Crescent Down Works? Typically above your price range, but they’re often on sale or have frequent sample sales if you sign up for their newsletter
my Topo Designs puffer was sub $300 new and it’s held up really well over the past few years

@smiles Fwiw I think that TNF Nuptse is a very good looking option given your criteria
rn a women's Nuptse is my leading option as it's a bit more cropped than the mens and they have big sizes so one will certainly fit
I like the Arpenteur loft jacket but can't justify $550 for it
I have this CDW+3Sixteen in the green and I love it. Nice and warm and on the mid-crop side

There are some used ones around,though it's a bit more of a sizing gamble that way. I am usually medium in 3sixteen with them but went large to get it long enough (similar to photos).

That jacket usually goes on sale at most stockists every year
(Also on Arpenteur.com)
Ended up going for No Maintenance's cropped version despite it being Polyester instead of Nylon cause the price was stupid good for a down puffer and I love how cropped it is
